KUALA LUMPUR: Mohd Syafiq Puteh needed to convince coach Australian Christian Brooker that he was worthy of a place in the 3m springboard individual event at the Philippines SEA Games next month.

The 24-year-old, the only married diver in the national team, did it in really convincing fashion by partnering Olympic-bound Wendy Ng Yan Yee to win the mixed 3m springboard synchro final at the Malaysia Diving Grand Prix in Bukit Jalil last night.
